“They [Democrats] say they prefer the ideas the President outlined in a speech he gave last month,” McConnell said.

“Well, unfortunately we can't vote on a speech ... but if that's what it takes to get Democrats engaged in this debate, maybe we should revisit the rules so we can actually vote on a speech,” said McConnell.

McConnell was referring to a address Obama made last month in which he laid out his vision for reducing the budget deficit by $4 trillion over the next 12 years.

“More than two years have passed since Democrats have produced a budget of their own,” McConnell pointed out.

And our President is off somewhere. Momentarily in between speeches. Looking around for Waste and Fraud I presume.
